Better Care Fund Policy funds integrated health and social care services, particularly hospital discharge and preventative community care, through pooled budgets between NHS and local authorities. Led by DLUHC and DHSC, the policy is undergoing structural reform for 2026–27 to better support prevention and align funding across multiple government departments. Current concerns focus on funding misalignment, Integrated Care Systems capacity, and unpaid carer support.
